Actually, my real code does that.  I had to simplify it a bit
for the article.

Below the top dir, I have:

etc/ - for apache etc, some files are templatized
htddocs/ - for apache rootdir
perl-lib/ - @INC at run-time, for custom mod_perl modules and TT2 plugins
perl-tt2/ - TT2 templates
pod/ - 158(!) column source pods, processed into HTML and listing files
sbin/ - apache sbin, contains log-roller and apachectl
generate-navbars - process META info to make navbar database
run-template - described in article
GNUmakefile - "One File To Rule Them All"

And yes, I can check the puppy out, edit and test it at 30,000 feet,
then resync when I get to a landline again.  Very nice.
